Chapter 19 Intentional breakthroughs

Sure enough, a 3rd grade medicinal pill was no joke. Despite not intentionally cultivating his body, he broke through to the 8th stage body tempering realm.

This fact alone left Ru Chan astonished.

Even for someone with the memories of a martial emperor and held a system, wasn't this still too absurd?

Nevertheless, Ru Chan couldn't be by happier. With the strength of both 8th Stage body cultivation and 5th phase Qi cultivation, defeating Lu Gang was as easy as drinking water.

Of course, the extra strength brought about by cultivating such a powerful technique and the unused martial skills hadn't even been brought into the fold.

It was no exaggeration to say that despite Ru Chan's inexperience in fighting, Lu Gang wouldn't be able to resist ten of his moves.

This was really gratifying.

Meanwhile, Tang Ning was so shocked that her little mouth hung wide open.

Is this the strength someone at the fifth phase should have? It was too surprising if that were the case.

Currently, Ru Chan's figure seemed to be inexplicably valiant while standing there with his brows knitted.

He looked strangely...... Different for some reason.

On the other hand, Lu Gang's face was as white as a sheet.

Being the one who resisted the head on collision with the other party, he was more than sure that the latters strength was extremely terrifying.

He had never met the core higher ups that ran his gang, but very few were able to completely overwhelm him in such a manner among the people who he had sparred with.

Without a martial skill, this youth had actually completely resisted his attack while he was disadvantaged. Even being forced to take several steps backward.

For a moment, shame welled in his heart.

He was actually trumped by someone many years younger than him.

This was simply unacceptable.

If news of this were to spread, then where would he keep his face?

Not to mention, the punishment he would receive would definitely not be anything he could handle.

Although the scorpion gang was notorious on the outside, the truth was..... They were even more vicious among themselves. In the inner circle, countless people schemed against each other, robbed and bullied and even went as far as assassination.

If he couldn't make a comeback here right now, then those rivals who were very displeased with his rise in status would certainly follow up this mistake to cause him to fall from grace.

Thinking up to this point, Lu Gang shivered intensely.

There weren't many people he was afraid of, but there were still people. The scorpion gang may not be the strongest force in this city, but they had fighters who had long since exceeded his current realm.

Qi apprentice realm cultivators and muscle tempering realm cultivators were plenty. It's just that they didn't often appear on the surface.

As soon as he concluded his thoughts, Lu Gang's expression became incredibly vicious.

No matter what, for his sake and the sake of his cultivation, this kid had to go.

If not, he would not be able to obtain this perfect sex cauldron. Moreover, he might lose his life.

Certainly, not prepared to face such scenarios, he glared fiercely at Ru Chan and drew his sword hanging on his waist.

"Because of a single advantage, don't think that you have won. Do you think that i, Lu Gang, am so easy to be killed?"

Despite not having any sword techniques, it was certainly better than attacking this guy with his fists.

With a weapon in play, even if the latter was stronger, he would be able to kill him using some tricks provided his opponent's battle experience was low.

In a fight between cultivators, there were many factors to victory. Having better strength didn't mean that they would be able to defeat the enemy.

Ru Chan snapped out of his daze after being at the receiving end of the furious glare. However, he could see that the other party wasn't as contemptuous and disdainful as before.

There was a hint of caution in his movements as he took out his sword, meaning that he was going to fight with his full strength.

Ru Chan couldn't help but frown.

Indeed, like the latter had said, there were many factors that could affect a battle. Although Ru Chan was undoubtedly stronger than Lu Gang, the risk was still ever present.

He didn't have any battle experience, so when it came to fighting tactics, Ru Chan was definitely not his match.

In this kind of situation, only absolute strength would be able to completely crush the opposing party without giving him a chance to fight back.

Indeed, in front of absolute strength, all petty tricks were completely useless.

Upon this realization, Ru Chan had an enlightened expression.

Looks like he had to get stronger at all costs. Only after he was strong enough to defeat everyone that he wouldn't be subjected to the will of others.

If not, his life would always be at stake.

Nodding inwardly, a toothy grin appeared on his face as he stared at Lu Gang.

The latter was a little flustered, seeing the smile that was mixed with mockery.

However, before he could speak out, Ru Chan beat him to it.

"Yes, you are right. It would be troublesome to defend against you if I had to deal with your cunning tricks". Nodding his head continuously like a pondering expert.

The smile never left his face as he finished his words.

"In that case, let's see how you fare in the face of absolute power".

"Huh?" Lu Gang was flabbergasted at his words. What the hell was he saying.

Yes, the initial exchange between them had led to his disadvantage, but that couldn't be considered as absolute power.

However, before he could respond again.

BOOM!

A small explosive sound rang out in Ru Chan's abdominal area as waves of stored energy began to fly to every path of his body.

His reserved aura immediately broke through from its shackles and began to spread everywhere, thoroughly shocking the crowd.

Lu Gang choked on his saliva.

Before he could even say a word, Ru Chan had done something that was yet again incredulous.

Breakthrough! In the middle of a battle?

How is it possible?

Since when has it been so easy to break through?

Sensing the aura surrounding Ru Chan, Lu Gang could precisely tell that the other party had broken through to 6th Phase Dantian establishment realm. Nevertheless, despite it only being one realm, Lu Gang's mission to tale this guy down had undoubtedly become much harder.

Gritting his teeth, he stared at the other party who was standing there calm and composed and wanted to rush forward and attack immediately.

In the battle, the one who first took the initiative had an advantage.

Seeing his strength had increased yet again, Lu Gang wanted to end this immediately before this hateful fellow gave him some more surprises.

However, his face turned pale as he realized something horrifying.

Ru Chan's Qi cultivation that had just broken through didn't bother to stop at the 6th phase dantian establishment and actually shot upwards with astonishing speed.

Under his disturbed gaze

BOOM!

The released heaven and earth energy became increasing stronger and stronger until it broke through the pinnacle, completely stepping into a new phase all entirely.

"7th Phase Dantian establishment!"

"Shit!" Lu Gang roared as his advancing footsteps froze like a statue.

A deep foreboding sense of dread overwhelmed him as his back was drenched in cold sweat.

Two Levels! Someone had actually broken through two levels in one go.

At the same time, the surroundings which were dead silence finally had some activity. In other words, an uproar commenced.

Breaking through two levels in one go? This was basically unheard of. Tang Ning's face changed from disbelief to blatant shock.

How the hell was she going to accept this? Earlier, despite being two levels lower than Lu Gang, Ru Chan was still able to gain the upper hand by a landslide.

Now, their cultivation were very similar.

In that case, wouldn't Lu Gang be sent flying with a single slap at the at the moment?

However, little did they know that the true horror was yet to come.

<Congratulations, you have broken through to 6th Phase, Dantian establishment >

< Congratulations, you have broken through to 7th Phase, Dantian establishment >

<Congratulations, you have broken through to 8th Phase, Dantian establishment >

<Congratulations, you have broken through to 9th Phase, Dantian establishment >

< You have reached the peak of Dantian establishment phase. To advance to the next realm, you must create your first strand of Qi >

< You have enough heaven and earth essence to convert for a breakthrough. Do you wish to advance to Qi apprentice realm ?

Without even thinking twice, Ru Chan clicked on yes.

Suddenly, an even more violent surge of energy flowed from his body as the air surrounding him became disturbed.

Heaven and earth energy was no longer absorbed as Ru Chan began to refine Qi, albeit unintentionally.

< Congratulations, you have reached first place Qi Apprentice realm >

"This..... This is.... Qi apprentice!"

Lu Gang exclaimed in fright.
